Enache, C.S. (author)For centuries, mankind has mostly used fossil fuels, i.e., natural gas, coal, and oil for its energy needs. With the fast rise of the world population and the rising standards of living in the developing countries, the amount of energy the world is going to need in the coming decades will grow enormously. Due to environmental concerns and the...doctoral thesis 2012

Locati, C. (author)The fast-growing market on electronic portable devices is possibly due to the development of Li-ion batteries. Besides, such batteries are the most promising candidates as energy storage media in (hybrid) electric vehicles, in the near future. However, improvements on electrochemical performances and on safety need to be achieved. With respect...doctoral thesis 2012

Tran, T.H.Y. (author)Carbon capture and storage (CCS) can significantly contribute to the reduction of the emission of the greenhouse gas CO2. Capture by means of CO2 sorption or membrane-based separation processes is a promising way for achieving decarbonization of fuel or flue gas cleaning. In the field of separation and also purification of hydrogen, membrane...doctoral thesis 2011

Simonin, L. (author)The growing interest during the past decades for mobile devices, like laptops, cellular phones, MP3 players, etc., is impressive. moreover, the concerns about climate changes have increased the worldwide interest for electrical and hybrid vehicles and intermittent sustainable energies, like solar and wind energy. These development have...doctoral thesis 2009

Loef, R. (author)Space charges in two heterojunctions (i.e., TiO2/CuInS2 and TiO2/QD-CdSe) are studied by means of impedance spectroscopy and capacitance studies. Several lattice defects are found. When applied in solar cells, the defects may have a negative effect on the efficiency. Therefore, it is important to know the nature of the defects. In this thesis a...doctoral thesis 2009

Simon, D.R. (author)In this thesis an investigation of two spinel materials, Li4Ti5O12 and LiMn2O4 used for Li-ion battery applications is performed interms of formation and reactivity towards acidic solutions. Subsequent characterizations such as structural, magnetic, chemical, and electrochemical characterizations are performed and discussed.doctoral thesis 2007

Van den Berg, A.W.C. (author)The feasibility of using zeolites, and more specifically the clathrasil subgroup, for hydrogen storage has been investigated by comparing their H2 loading rate and storage capacity to the technically required values. The uptake rate and capacity are determined by means of computational modelling for a large number of clathrasil structures. It...doctoral thesis 2006

Van Landschoot, N. (author)Chapter 2 describes the solid-state synthesis of LiNiVO4 and LiCoVO4. The materials are prepared at 800C and are phase pure, as shown by X-ray diffraction and have the inverse spinel structure. Due to the solid-state synthesis the particle size is quite large and the particle size distribution is large, between 0.1mm and 10 mm, even after ball...doctoral thesis 2006

Verhoeven, V.W.J. (author)In April 1997 the program "Decentralized Production and Storage for Large-Scale Application of Renewable Energy" of the Delft Interfaculty Research Centre (DIOC) was launched. In this program various groups from several Faculties of the Delft University of Technology studied the feasibility of large scale application of renewable energy. Energy...doctoral thesis 2001
